INTRO: A D (x4)

#1.
A        D              A
Bows and flows of angel hair..and ice-cream
C#m     D      A
castles in the air.
A           D            Bm          D
And feather canyons everywhere..I've looked
               E
at clouds that way.

#2.
    A        D    A
But now they only block the sun..they rain and
C#m     D    A
snow on everyone.
A       D                             Bm
So many things I would have done..but clouds got
      E
in my way.

CHORUS:
     A                     D           A
I've looked at clouds from both sides, now.
     D      A         D         A         E
From up and down, and still somehow..it's cloud's
          A           D                 Bm      E7 A  D A D
illusions I recall..I really don't know clouds, at all.

#3.
A         D         A      D           C#m           D
Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels..the dizzy dancin' way
    A              D                           Bm
you feel..as every fairy tale comes real..I've looked at
          E
love that way.

#4.
    A        D      A                         C#m
But now it's just another show..you leave 'em laughing
D        A
when you go.
A          D                                Bm
And if you care, don't let them know..don't give yourself
 E
away.

CHORUS:
     A                   D          A         D        A
I've looked at love from both sides now..from give and take,
    D         A         E                A           D
and still somehow..it's love's illusions I recall..I really
           Bm   E7 A
don't know love at all.


(INTERLUDE:) A D A D A (x2)

#5.
A         D         A                        C#m       D
Tears and fears and feeling proud..to say, I love you, right
    A
out loud.
A          D                               Bm
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds..I've looked at life
     E
that way.

#6.
    A       D                       A
But now old friends, they're acting strange..they shake their
C#m       D        A
heads and say I've changed.
A                 D                              Bm           E
Well, something's lost but something's gained in living every day.

OUTRO:
     A                   D          A         D       A        D
I've looked at life from both sides now..from win and lose and still
    A         E                A           D                 Bm
somehow..it's life's illusions I recall..I really don't know life
E7 A    A D A D A (x4)
at all.
